Countless married couples end up living alone – in the same house. Over twenty-eight years of conducting "Weekend to Remember" conferences have convinced Dennis and Barbara Rainey that isolation is the number-one problem in marriages today. But they believe it''s possible to overcome "marital drift" and experience the miracle of oneness. This book provides a positive, workable strategy for keeping your marriage vital and intimate. Included are proven principles and hands-on exercises to help you:

• understand the personal and cultural forces that isolate you from your spouse

• manage your schedules, workloads, roles, and responsibilities without losing sight of each other

• allos for (and enjoy) individual differences while maintaining unity

• build an atmosphere of cooperation by meeting each other more than halfwey

• "affair-proof" your relationship (or heal it after the fact)

• grow closer duing hard times instead of letting your troubles pull you apart

• create a "safe" atmosphere for transparent communication

• discover the secrets of a mutually rewarding sex life

• leave a legacy of love and unity to your family and friends
